Seven people between the ages of 19 and 37 were arrested in a drug investigation which found two handguns and various drugs, authorities said.

The weapons and drugs were found by authorities during a Friday search of two Lakewood homes, one on Jeffrey Street and another on Marshall Street, and two cars, a gray 2006 Hyundai Sonata and a silver 2003 Mercury sedan. The Ocean County Prosecutor's Office along with Brick and Lakewood police had determined the homes and cars were being used to deal drugs, Capt.
